Subject: [PATCH v2 02/17] KVM: arm64: Reject the PVTIME vCPU attribute for protected VMs
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2026 07:59:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260907070002.3333525-3-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260907070002.3333525-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev>
pKVM currently doesn't support steal time for protected guests:
KVM_CAP_STEAL_TIME reports 0 for them. The host still accepts the
KVM_ARM_VCPU_PVTIME_CTRL attribute, whose IPA would point
kvm_update_stolen_time() at the guest's private memory on every vCPU
load. Return -EPERM for the attribute group instead.
